I'm writing now with a week. still to go .before the big day to make sure you see ' I haven't forgotten you. Best wishes to you every one for a happy. happy Christmas and New Year full of good healthand joy. My thanks to all those good souls who have written or sent me Christmas cards or both. For me, letter writing in 1984 has been disaster. If it weren't for the kindness of the Lucknow Sentinel, many of you would: have no news, of 'me at all! • , • Not that I've been idle. Life gets more frantic every day, especially now with Christmas so close and so much still to do. First of all, ,let me confess that in a moment of weakness, I volunteered for C.A.B. work. Do you have this in Canada? Any one with -a problem can come to the Citizens Advice Bureau for -help or a sympathetic ear. Where necessary, we're able to redirect them to a volunteer panel of solicitors, accountants ,or other specialists. I hadn't realized there was such a need or that being a volunteer would take so much time, the one thing above all that I'm always .short. of. It means attending two advice sessions in Dungannon each week and one day each week in Belfast for Basic Training. Plus last night we, had a - big C.A.B. dinner. I must say I'm enjoying this new venture which means learning lots and: Cots that I never knew before, working with people I'd' never met and "helping others who often Only need to talk their worries -over to find a solution. Having started,now, I'd not want to give it -up as it becomes more and more fascinating. I'm particularly interested in the legal aspect of many of our cases. In between whiles, I have to fit in my house- work, write up minutes, weed the garden4 visit friends. You can see why suddenly, life is a terrrible rush. I've also been raising funds for Ethiopia. I began tlbis work in September. Then in November I flew to London again for my fourth trip this year. This visit was very very special as I had tickets for the Royal British Legion's Festival of Remembrance in the Royal Albert Hall. Because my husband couldn't come, his -brother-in-law was my escort, meeting me at Heathrow and making all the required arrangements. for . travel etc. And I have to tell you it was one of the most marvellous experiences of my whole life. We were allocated seats in the private box of Earl Spencer (father of Princess Diana) almost beside the Royal Family. They were all there, the Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Charles, Princess Diana, the Queen Mother; Princess Anne, the Dow- ager Duchess of Gloucester, King Olav of Norway and many. others. It was lovely to see them all enjoying everything, joining in the community singing and the applause. The show itself was marvellous, too, and next day we took part in the exservice march past the Cenotaph wii6 the Queen and other notables laid their wreaths. Viewers in Dungannon were astonished -to see me on TV as I'd been selling poppies in our streets just prior to flying off. I was only away three days. Friday to Monday,, but managed to fit in a great deal includingtime with my son who is working now as a trainee reporter for a firm of Anglo-American ,publishers. Last week` they sent him to Hamburg in' Germany which he enjoyed and we expect him home for Christma so I'm busy getting organiz- ed. His work has particular reference to the Stock Exchange and petro chemicals which adds another dimension to our. lives. After Armistice, my sister and I ran a Poppy Ball for the Legion, very grand and formal with lots of V.I'.P.s, raising 500 Pounds for the Poppy Fund." Then my husband and I spent three days in Portrush at the Legion's Convalescent Home there, testing its facilities for an article I've Turn to page 19•
